I've been refraining from addressing this person because frankly... she's irrelevant to my life, even though she's been obsessed with me for years. But her recent uptick in psychotic behaviors finally warrants a post. Jess Machado could not be any more accurate if her life was on the line. Just dropping truth bombs like it's Christmas morning. If I were Aidan, I would invest in a state of the art security system equipped with cameras at every angle, nuke my devices, make the switch to a Droid (make fun of me all you want), get a private security detail, and sleep with one eye open for the rest of my Goddamn life. Meredith "Swimfan" O'Neil should know that I know so much more than she could ever imagine about the crimeS she's been committing. People have been flooding my DMs (and phone calls 😉) with unsolicited evidence of everything she's done (from the last 3 years; to her antics after her lackluster publicity stunt of a relationship ended when she was dumped; to her most recent activities). I know who has helped her. I have people who want to testify under oath against her. I have. It. All. This woman deserves no sympathy. She's been conning everyone on the internet since she first sunk her teeth into the prey she had been stalking for a year prior. She knew what she was getting into with Aidan as she sought him out in JAIL. She knew he was a womanizer. She chose that, thinking she was "different" and better than everyone around her. The sweet innocent act never fooled me for a second. But it fooled many others. I'm going to make sure it never fools anyone again.show more

Mike White, the writer, director and producer of The... White Lotus, talked about #LISA, her casting and willingness to work with her again in the future. "I know this sounds crazy, but I did not know who Lisa was. [...] I did not know Blackpink. [...] But then she came in and auditioned and she was just so lovely and she couldn't have been a better actress. [...] She brought a lot of attention for the show and she's been an incredible ambassador for the show. [...] She was just a great person to work with and I would work with her again. I think she's gonna have a huge acting career beyond, you know, obviously all the other things she's doing. [...] and also somebody who's got massive fame already, it’s not something that I usually do because it feels a little like stunt casting. [...] I try to be meticulous about making sure we're casting the right person for the part but her audition was the best." #TheWhiteLotus LLOUD #LISAxTheWhiteLotusshow more

Caller: "Okay. So, I've been with my wife for,... we've been together since we were 14, for 14 years. I'm 32, I met her when I was 19, we had a child at 20. And, um, I've always just kind of been a butthead to her, to be honest. Every now and then I would demean her or make little comments, and I would say it started to really get bad about six weeks ago. Um, we were doing some work in the yard, and I really just blew up on her over the stupidest little thing. And then about a week later, we're just constantly arguing and dividing from each other. And then about a week or two later, she told me that she thought she was falling out of love with me. And it just really crushed me. I never would have thought that those words could come out of her mouth, and she told me that the way I treat her is, I'm not treating her the right way. And I completely owned it. I mean, I said everything you said is absolutely correct. You know, and I said, 'I don't want my son, our son growing up thinking that this is how you're supposed to treat women.' And, I mean, since that day, I have treated her like an angel. I mean, I've done everything and just constantly telling her I love her, giving her hugs, kisses. Um, but that was a Saturday night, and then Monday night she ended up telling me that she was, um, in communication with a guy she met on TikTok. And she told me she broke it off with him, and I asked her, What was the subjects about?' And she said it was just somebody to talk to about what I'm going through, my mental, you know, health. And she said it was never anything flirtatious or anything like that. She said it was just a stranger that I could talk to, but she said, 'I broke it off with him, and I'm gonna focus on us. And I said, 'I'm all in with you, let's rebuild this.' And we went about two weeks and it was just absolute honeymoon phase. I mean, we were just, never it was great. And then I went through her phone two weeks after that and found that she was on Snapchat with the guy. And I confronted her about it, and she said, 'Okay, well, I didn't think you were really gonna change, and I wanted to keep this friendship with the guy.' And she said, 'I'll break it off with him.' And I'm like, 'Okay, I guess I'll give you a second chance. I'm kind of heartbroken again that you would keep this from me. And then about a week and a half later, which was just yesterday, I went through the call logs on which, I feel bad because I'm constantly digging at all this, but every time I dig, I find something. And I confronted her yesterday that she's been talking to this guy for 30, 40, 50 minutes a day, um, the last week and a half, after she told me a third time that she was breaking it off with him. And I'm just super confused. I don't really know how to handle this. Now she's saying that she's all done talking to him, and I'm like, 'Well, how do I trust you now? You've been lying to me for the past three weeks about this.' So, that's really all I got." John Delony: "So for 14 years... you belittled your wife. She got the clear message she was beneath you. You're the smart one, you're the fast one, you're the quick one. You are the provider, you're the all this stuff." Caller: "Mhm. I always thought she was beneath me." John Delony: "Yeah, you did. And she's got that message for, for a decade and a half.show more

🌻: I told her, “The day you decide to... stand beside me, it might be a little tiring. You may have to face things that affect you emotionally. Are you ready for that? This path may not be smooth. It may not be as beautiful as you imagine. Are you truly ready?” And she replied: “I am. I’m willing.” I didn’t even tell her about the good parts. I never talked about the positives at all. I only told her about the worst-case scenarios, about all the difficult things she might have to face. The very first thing I wanted to know was: “Will your heart be strong enough to handle it?” But she said she wanted to try. She wanted to give herself a chance. She chose to stand beside me with all the trust she had. And because of that, I felt that from that day on, I wanted to take the best possible care of her as her partner. Because she gave me that trust. The truth is, there were many people who wanted to work with her. Many of them were from major companies. But in the end, she chose… But in the end, she chose what made her feel at peace. 🍑: At first, we didn’t know each other at all. I was simply someone who had been admiring her from afar. The first reason I chose her was simple: I admired her. I liked her. But after meeting her in person and spending more time together, I began to feel brave enough to place my trust, my true self, and everything I had in her hands. I trusted her. I believed that she would take care of me. I believed that she would help me become someone who could love myself even more in the future. Because of that, I felt more and more at ease. The more time I spent with her, the more comfortable I felt around her. And then I made my decision: “Okay. I want to work with her. I want to be her partner. I want to be by her side.” ⸻ MADAME FIN X FAYEATOM LIVE #FayeAtomLiveKperfume #FayePeraya #FayeAtom #AtomPariyashow more

ON THE CASE OF Lady B - IYALODE OF... X SHE IS A FEMALE MALE A lot of people started tagging me to it, and I got confused. When I was planning to visit Nigeria, Lady B asked that she wanted a laptop, so I added her to the list, and she later reached out to me to say, she will like to meet with me upon arrival in lagos, but she wants me to know that her real face isnt what shes using online, so, she said she can call me on video so I can see her face, I just told her not to worry that it was fine. I didnt have the time to meet with her while I was in Nigeria but Sandra Ibeh was the one in constant conversation. So, i have been speaking with Lady B, and I know her voice, I have lots of voicenotes from her, I decided to call her on a video call. At least the device that changes voice wont be in her throat. I did a video call, I told her I will record and post it so people who have heard her voice before can compare if the voice on the video call is different. In life, we should be very careful how we quickly throw others under the bus. For what I know, she has been of great help publicly posting about the laptop project, she is always posting and reposting. She stepped forward to make this facts known, why treat her like a criminal? It is unfair. I attached the video call recording for our perusal. God bless you all.show more

📲| Travis recently liked this Instagram video of former... Republic Records CEO describing what makes Taylor so unique! "She's the smartest person I know. Everything she does, she does for a reason. She's the smartest artist I know. And she has a relationship with her fans that no one else ever had before. She's with these fans and not just giving them what they want or need, but she's helping them live a better life, I believe, through music and through culture. The way she cares about she cares about her shows, the way she cares about her songs, the way she tells you the truth. The way she lives her life. She is, full time, there to be with her fans. When I've been with her in the past, it's not like it's fun, but it's such an experience of listening and adding value where you can. But she knows exactly what she's doing, all the time, and it's not manipulation by any means. She just wants to be the biggest star in the world because she is the biggest star in the world."show more

Over the years, many of you have joined me... in celebrating this truly special girl turned young woman, Maddie. I am heartbroken to share with you that Maddie has passed away at the age of 21. I’m sharing a glimpse into my friendship with Maddie because I want people to know how truly special she was. I met Maddie when Kevin and I were filming Kevin Can Wait. Make-A-Wish America reached out and told us that a young girl’s wish was to meet us. I was so touched. This beautiful little girl was a fan of King of Queens? And we of course said yes. Maddie and her family came to visit us on set, and what started as a meet-and-greet turned into a real, almost decade-long, lasting friendship. Maddie would text me almost every day. She sent me funny videos, shared stories about her life, and came out to LA with her family, where I attempted to get her to expand her palate (though she always circled back to her favorite, a Caesar salad). We shared many beautiful moments that have kept me positive in moments of difficulty and darkness, and she was about to come to LA again, where I planned on celebrating her for her birthday and her recent accomplishments. Maddie had Spinal Muscular Atrophy type two (SMA), but she never let it define her. She was excited to begin advocacy work and had recently told me she was officially going to start speaking publicly about her experiences, not even for herself, but to help others. She had big dreams, and I was so proud watching her grow into the leader I always knew she was. Maddie loved her family and friends fiercely. For her young age, she would prefer to be with friends and family, playing games and our favorite, Phase 10. She loved all things girly: nails, hair, makeup, the Timberwolves. And she hated snow (though she lived in Minnesota), and more importantly, she loved helping people. She wrote me love notes daily, and I only hope I had let her know how much joy she brought me. It is me who hopes that she knew how much I loved her. I received this text from her friend Emma, whom I knew from the many funny videos Maddie sent me of the two of them. I’ve included it below. After flying to Minnesota to say goodbye (although she had already passed while I was in the air), I wanted her to know what she meant to me. That she was thinking of me in this way and wanted me to have the things she mentioned, that she cared so much, is also truly touching and heartbreaking. Maddie had so much life ahead of her. Her disease didn’t stop her spirit or dim her light. She was hopeful, brilliant, and genuinely excited for her future. I will miss her texts, her videos, and hearing from her every day. They always made me smile. I will miss her humor and the light she brought into this world every single day. Maddie had just turned 21. Her little body just couldn’t contain the big, beautiful life she was living. She was a force, taken too soon. If you feel moved, it would mean the world to her to support the cause she believed in so passionately: finding a cure for spinal muscular atrophy. Link to support Cure SMA is in my bio.show more

“I want to follow Jesus. But I don't get... to do that because I'm transgender." That's what Haley believed until a co-worker's Christ-like example challenged everything she thought she knew about Christianity. After a simple prayer inviting Jesus into her life, she encountered the love of Christ for herself. "Just a touch of His love made me mourn all the years I had spent apart from that. And I knew in that moment that I could never spend one day of my life apart from that ever again." Jesus saved her, and she eventually realized she was the woman God had made her to be.show more

🌻: I told Atom, "The day you decide to... stand beside me, it might be a little exhausting. You might have to face things that affect you emotionally. Are you ready for that? It may not be easy. It may not be as beautiful as people imagine it to be. But are you ready?" And she said, "I'm willing. I'm ready." I never talked about the good side of it. Not once. I only told her about the worst-case scenarios. I only talked about the challenges and the downsides. The very first thing I wanted to know was whether her heart would be strong enough to handle it. But she told me she wanted to try. She wanted to see where this journey would take her. She put all of her heart and trust into the decision to stand beside me. And that made me feel that, from this day forward, I wanted to take the best possible care of her as her partner. Because I felt like, "Wow, she's placing her trust in me." The thing is, when she entered this industry, there were already so many people interested in her. Many of them were from major companies. But in the end, she chose this... she chose peace of mind. 🍑: At first, we didn't actually know each other personally. I had only been watching and following her from afar. The first reason I chose her was simply because I admired her. I was a fan of hers. But after meeting her for real and spending more time together, I started to feel that I could entrust myself—and everything that comes with me—to her. I trusted her. I believed in her. I believed that she would take care of me, and that she would help me become someone I could be proud of in the future. Because of that, I gradually felt more at ease. More comfortable being around her. And that's when I decided, "Okay, I want to work with her. I want to be her partner. I want to be by her side."

I genuinely cannot understand how someone can watch this... story and still stand there, looking at two women, and somehow decide that the wrong one is the victim. On one side, you have a girl (Yıldız) who has been mistreated her entire life. Since the moment she was born, she was treated like a sacrifice for a conflict she was never even part of and later we find out that this conflict never even existed. Her right to study was taken from her. She was pushed into a marriage at a very young age just imagine being six, seven, eight years old, living in fear of being tied to someone you don’t even know. She was treated like a servant in her own home, by the very people she thought were her family. And just when she gets close to the happiness she dreamed of, the man she was engaged to shows up with another wife. She gets mistreated by that wife, by his family, and even (unintentionally) by him, because he was trying to run away from his own feelings, and that only caused her more heartbreak. The whole world was literally against her. She fought through all of that, only to find out in the end that everything she suffered for was based on something that wasn’t even real. Her entire life was built on a lie. That she isn’t even part of that family that she has literally no one in this world. Now on the other side… You have a girl (Melek) who, yes, was taken from her biological mother but she was raised by loving parents. She had everything anyone could wish for: education, freedom, a happy childhood, a healthy environment. She lived her life, fell in love, went out, made choices and no one questioned her, no one controlled her. And then what did she do? She found out that her man was engaged to another woman before marrying her (and even saw him marry her) and instead of holding on to her dignity, she chose to stay, to fight for a man who lied to her, to hold onto a marriage he tried to end multiple times. She used her unborn child to keep him tied to her. She lied constantly, and her excuse was that she was “protecting her marriage” a marriage that was already broken from the moment Serhat removed that ring at the airport in episode one. She tried to hand Yıldız (a woman who had already suffered enough) over to dangerous people. Then she found out the truth about her own birth (that her father ra*ped her mother.)And still no empathy. No moment of humanity toward her own mother. All she cared about was herself. And even though none of this had anything to do with Yıldız, she still found a way to blame it on her. Instead of holding her father accountable, she went and made a deal with him to get rid of Yıldız. She literally made a deal with the devil just to hurt Yıldız one more time. And after all of that… you want me to feel sorry for her? You want me to call her a victim? I honestly cannot believe we are living on the same planet with people who see this and still say, “she’s the victim.” Not morally. Not logically. Not emotionally. There is no world where this makes sense. It’s like watching someone clearly cause harm, and still calling them the victim and actually BELIEVING it. #HalefKöklerinÇağrısıshow more

#TheWhiteLotus Season 3 Actresses: Michelle, Aimee & Natasha about... #LISA: Michelle: She really is lovely, …. And she's so incredible in the show. I love that storyline between her and Tame. I think this is her first acting job and she's incredible in it. My daughter was visiting me on set and my daughter was gobsmacked to be able to see like, you know, Lisa from Blackpink, of course, was really cool for her, And so it was just lovely to have her on set and around. Aimee: She’s like the most down to earth. She's so chill. Like you would not think that she had that stratospheric fame. Like she's so cool. Natasha: She's so incredibly gracious. She's so cool and obviously, the audiences in the US know her from Blackpink but she is Thai, and she's out of control famous there and she's so grounded, so humble, so sweet, and just to see her move through the sets and locations and people were screaming for her.…, and she's just so warm, and she's so good in the show. Audiences are going to be blown away by her performances, truly. Aimee: She was really good at being social, she was so good at bringing people i was not i was a little bit of recluse out there but she was really good at kind of hosting parties in her villa and things like that she was so lovely and like organizing special fun things for everyone she was just the coolest. 🔗 Hits Radio LLOUD #LalisaManobal #LISAxTheWhiteLotusshow more

this trial is sucha hard watch.. so so sooooo... many mixed emotions.. but mostly I am just sad; sad for them all! But after seeing this, I gotta say, my heart absolutely breaks for this woman. She is coming to terms with a horrific reality that she will have to live with for the rest of her life.. the fact that SHE did this, the most heinous of all crimes! But I do not see a monster here.. I see a woman who lost control of a life (and mind) she once had been in the driver seat of.. I see a woman who wanted to be EVERYTHING FOR EVERYONE AT ALL TIMES, suffer the harsh reality of the impossibility of doing so. I see a mother, a wife, a friend, a daughter, a coworker who was so used to being “on top of it all” suddenly lose her grip on her life (and mind) .. I see a woman who became OVERWHELMED, both mentally and physically, with life with IT ALL, who tried like HELL to get back to who she was, to “her normal” .. who unfortunately let the demons win I see a broken woman, and I am just sad for her! #LindsayClancyTrial #MelanieLittleshow more

the founder of The Elephant Nature Park mourning the... death of her beloved elephant, Ploythong: “She must’ve suffered so much. During the chaos of the floods, she must’ve been wondering, ‘What is happening to me?’ She’s so used to being with her family, where she is guided and where people are there to constantly care for her, where people talk to her through everything. When she wandered somewhere and couldn’t see, there would always be people calling her name, there would always be someone to let her know where to go. But this time—-there wasn’t anyone. Had my child not been blind, she might’ve had a chance to survive. The debris from the flood must’ve hit her so hard.” “when the doctor told me that nothing could be done for her eyes, I said that’s okay, we will make sure she has friends, so she had her herd of 6, those were hers. She was the only blind elephant, her juniors took care of her so well. She had her adopted babies, she cared for them deeply, her heart was exquisite, Ploythong, her heart was beautiful. And she talked a lot, she was really chatty, she was a talkative person, so during the floods when I couldn’t heart her voice———“ ”I have said to her that, in another life, when we are reborn, please come back as my daughter, I wish for her to reincarnate as my daughter, because as an elephant, I don’t think she’ll receive the love and respect that she deserves.“show more

Chris says she hates singing, but after watching her... character so far, I get it now, it wasn't the singing she hated. It was the messed up world that turned her against it. Ever since she was a kid, she never got to just be happy or have a normal life like other children, so she got all twisted up inside and started hating everything and everyone... until she realized there's still good out there, and she shouldn't give up on it. She had her reasons to be cruel, but deep down, she's still kind, she'd help a total stranger if they needed it. She tries to act tough and bad, but her heart just won't let her, her body always ends up doing the right thing. She's meant to be a good person, and these amazing people she just met??? They're not gonna let her sink into that darkness. She's got every right to be pissed off, and man, I love her character. She's awesome.show more

Orm Kornnaphat spent her early years hesitating about how... to begin a story with Lingling Kwong: "I was scared because she was a quiet person. She looked reserved and hard to approach. If I did this or that, I didn't know whether she would be annoyed." Orm Kornnaphat spent 5 years without a single project together with her, without interactions, without being close, without seeing each other for entire years, without even the slightest point of connection. And then, look at what she did for Lingling Kwong: - Every year on her birthday, there would always be a birthday wish "Happy birthday P'Ling". Simple, nothing more and nothing less. - Every anniversary of channel 3, she would invite her to eat together. - She would go all the way to her younger brother's restaurant, even though food wasn't really her favorite and the trip was far, just simply because she wanted to "support a colleague"? A colleague who wouldn't even hear about that thoughtfulness directly until years later? - She would pray and make promises of offerings, just for the chance to act alongside that colleague. Do you really put that much heart into a colleague? She had no idea how TSOU would turn out. It could have been just another project, merely an experimental series for CH3. Nothing was tailor made to guarantee success. Nobody expected it to become what it is today. For a project like that, the thing she wished for was simply the opportunity to act with Lingling Kwong. Orm Kornnaphat spent 2 months filming with her and several more months where seeing her one extra day felt special. And look at how much she treasured this relationship: - On the last day of filming, she was the one who said "I don't know when I'll get to see P'Ling again." - She prayed for 1 project together and asked for nothing more. That alone made her happy. - Even during promotional activities before the series aired, when the person she had wished to work with said "Orm is still young, she will have many chances to meet more people in her life." Orm Kornnaphat didn't automatically accept that as truth "Don't go anywhere too soon, okay?" - Even when TSOU was becoming popular and the series was at the height of its success, she never took it for granted that Lingling would always be there. Her wish remained simple:"Please don't disappear too soon." Orm Kornnaphat didn't get to this point in a day or two. It took her more than 5 years to go from "I don't know if she'll be annoyed" to "that person is going to scold me again." Every day, she observed and remembered what Lingling liked and disliked. She always wanted Lingling to feel as comfortable as possible. It's okay if Lingling dances a little awkwardly. It's okay if she makes mistakes. It's okay if she's having a bad day. Orm Kornnaphat will still be there. She will still say:"Lingling Kwong did great today", "Lingling Kwong kèng-mákkkk" She's not disrespectful enough to keep using a nickname if she knew Lingling disliked it. The reason she can joke like that is because Lingling allows her to. Lingling gave her that safe space to play around and tease her. So could people with no place in this relationship stop having opinions about it? It honestly looks ridiculous. She has countless ways to address her, P'Ling Lingling Kwong Ling Kwong 00K chubby P'Sao, and thousands of other nicknames. Who exactly are outsiders to police that? #LingOrm1stFMinHK 17.08.24 Lingling Kwong once said that she likes it when Orm calls her by name. Even the joke she made was: "She's clearly calling me. Why are all of you shouting?" So today, let me ask again: If she's clearly calling the person she loves, then why are all of you shouting? Take a look at yourselves for a moment. Doesn't this all seem a little ridiculous? #หลิงออม #LingOrmshow more

#ต้าห์อู๋ #Daou #Oueiija 🦖: There was a music festival... in Pattaya, and I brought my Mama along. Lately, I have been bringing my Mama to work a lot. And I felt like booking the best hotel for her to sleep in, so I did. That day, she kept looking at the view from the hotel, and I saw her reaction. She said, “Mama has never slept in a hotel like this in my whole life. Mama has been working since the age of 14, performing Chinese opera to provide for the family. I never thought I’d have something like this. Never thought I’d have a beautiful home or get to ride in nice cars.” And it resonated with me, especially since Pa passed away. When Mama says things like that, (it is) true. What I had planned was just one (more) year until Pa and Ma could retire… (but) it was too late. Even if it was just one year or one day, it was too late. Success can wait for tomorrow, (but) if they are not there tomorrow, then it is too late. So, I felt like, “Hey, when can I make her happy?” To be honest, the new house that I built for her, where she can do this and that, is finished. The renovations are all done. The cats have moved in. (She?) has a role as the pillar of the house. So, I feel that the car… I had bought one before, but that time, I had to thank the fans. But this time, it came from (my own) hard work. I want it to be something that makes Mama happy. I know that I bought a car, and she can’t drive it, but I want her to see that I am starting… I want her to see that I have succeeded.show more

Scooter Braun says he only met Taylor Swift three... times before buying Big Machine for $300,000,000 and still doesn't understand the fallout “I don't know Taylor Swift. I think I've met her in my life three times. I have never had a substantial conversation with her in my life. I one time got invited to a private party by her. She told me she had the utmost respect for me. I told her I had the utmost respect for her. You don't spend $300 million buying a label that she's on unless you're excited at the opportunity to work with her” “I will never truly understand that situation to this day. I wish her nothing but the best. I learned a tremendous amount from it. I chose to grow from it. I'm grateful for it at this point in my life. But I think there's this big misconception that we knew each other and we had this feud and I managed her for years. And people are usually shocked to find out that I legitimately don't know her and didn't have many interactions with her and never really knew her” “And like I said, I think I met her three times in my life and I think I spoke to her really once for like more than two minutes. But it was a very nice conversation and beyond that nothing ever. And then the three years prior to us buying the machine, she and I had no contact. I think the party was two or three years earlier and then never had any contact through the whole thing. So I'm just as confused that this is part of my life as you are but I choose to learn and grow from it”show more

Woman refused to work for 18 years so she... could get her Section 8 Housing Voucher to pay for her home It was a new build home and now she owns it, paid for by taxpayers “I work with Section 8 — This girl who is a nurse who has turned down several jobs because she would no longer get her housing voucher.

By 2010, Laura Delano had spent more than a... decade as a psychiatric patient. Diagnosed bipolar as a teenager, she'd handed her life over to doctors and done everything she was told. Then, at age 27, one afternoon flipped how she saw all of it. She was in a day program, at the hospital nine to five. A psychiatrist sensed she was becoming suicidal, and suggested she check herself into the short-term unit. "So I said, yeah, that's a great idea. I'm just going to go home and get my belongings. I'll come back later this afternoon. And he wouldn't let me leave to do that." "Things escalated. I began raising my voice. He called security." That was the moment reality inverted for her. "And that was the moment that I realized that this system I had been turning to for help through all of these years, through the most formative years of my life, that I had been assuming existed to take care of me, to help me feel okay in my skin was actually a system of control, and I just hadn't seen it for what it was because I had never said no to it before." "In an instant, it all just kind of blew up. And I suddenly was like, what have I been participating in? How did I not see this?"show more

🤍: I want everyone to give Pahn a lot... of compliments, honestly I never knew how much pressure she was under. I got to know the same time as everyone else when she did her speech. But I knew she was stressed, I always saw how determined she was(during practice). Everyone might already know she’s been to a lot of singing classes, when I knew how much she pressured herself, I want everyone to give her a lot of encouragement because doing something for the first time where you are not confident in but the out-come is so well, it’s very okay. I want Pahn to be more confident in herself. Also, she’s never complained a word, she was ready to dive in with me. I’m really glad that it’s Pahn, let’s give her lots of compliments.show more
